Celebs who have used heroin

cory monteith died heroin overdose

On July 13, 2013, news broke that Cory Monteith was found dead in his Fairmont Pacific Rim hotel in Vancouver. The "Glee" star had been very candid about his struggle with addiction since his early teen years, and in March of 2013, had voluntarily entered a rehab facility. While speculation grew that drugs and/or alcohol may have played a role in his death, the British Columbia Coroners Service released their preliminary results that indicate he indeed died from "a mixed drug toxicity, involving heroin and alcohol."
